City kicks food trucks off Arts District streets; adds new permit fees. It begs the question: How’s the movement going?

Robert Wilonskyhas the story this morning: The city has unexpectedly added new permit requirements and kicked food trucks off Arts District streets; now they’re limited to a parking lot across from Meyerson Symphony Center.

A year or so after the city’s food truck mania started to build, it feels like a moment to ask how it’s all going. Are you a fan of our local food trucks? If so, which are your favorites — and what are they serving that you love?

I can’t say I’m particularly excited about it. The movement doesn’t seem to have anything like the creative energy of the Austin food truck and trailer scene, for instance. Sure, there are more and more trucks, but which ones are doing something unique, personal or unusual, or even just turning out gotta-have food? The question’s not rhetorical — I’d really like to know.
